CREATE your paper-based filing system. Having an efficient filing system in place will enable you to find the information you need, when you need it! First of all invest in your filing storage, whether that's a dedicated filing cabinet or plastic filing crates. CREATE your PC filing system.

Files can be kept in open piles on a desk or in folders, according to your style. Use the RAFT template: refer it, act on it, file it or toss it. File it, if necessary. Eighty percent of filed papers are never looked at again. If the amount is small, three times a week may do. Act on it immediately.

Goals, on the other hand, if written correctly, are revisited and attained!  As you create your goals, do not set expectations that they would all be accomplished at the same time. Define no more than 5 major goals for the year. Measurable - you will have a way to know you did or did not reach the goal.

Manage paper effectively – Barbara Hemphill, author of The Paper Tiger, offers the FAT principle for paper burden: file it, act on it, or toss it. Reference Files: store in a convenient location close to your desk. Archive Files: store in a filing cabinet or an off-site location.

Sort – everything into boxes/containers according to what needs to be done: file , shred, recycle , refer, toss, etc. Process the paper – take the items you sorted into boxes and put them where they belong: filing, your tickler or reading folder or delegate/refer to a more appropriate person, etc.

It houses so much more than a file index. This allows them to keep it within site, but all projects are kept in an organized file. Once the project is completed, the whole pile of that particular project can be filed away; out of site. It is the easiest way for me to capture data, url's, emails, images, etc.
